Magazine Review

The magazine that I looked at today was American Photo this magazine just brings together a bunch of different information about photography. They do a good job with the cover photo because it is very inviting and makes you want to read or look through the rest of it. In this magazine I learned that there are so many different companies that make great equipment that I didn't know about before. I have read multiple different issues of there magazine and I like them a lot so I would definitely subscribe to it.
There are many different sections that advertise the different brands of cameras and other things like that. There are also different stories, for instance this one has 33 Best Images of the Year which displays all the photos in a really cool way and it makes you want to read more of the magazine. Each issue that gets set out is probably going to have a cool cover story and the rest of it is just more advertising and stories about different photographers.
My favorite section is where they are showing all the best pictures of the year because they are just so good. Its just interesting to see what they choose and the way that they decide to put all the photos in.




Favorite Photographer
Bryan Schutmaat


He is an artist and writer
He is known most for his recent work "Grays the Mountain Sends"
I was attracted to his work because the two images that are in the magazine go together really well and the portrait and landscape picture are both dark and cool.

Printing Paper

The 4 major characteristic of printing paper:
Thickness
Opacity
Handling
Finish

ISO brightness is the standard that quantifies the brightness of paper as it would be perceived in a setting that is illuminated with a mixture of cool-white and unfiltered daylight. ISO standard will always be brighter than TAPPI for the same paper. ISO brightness can exceed 100% by a small number.

TAPPI brightness is the brightness of paper as it would be perceived in a setting that is illuminated in some cool-white fluorescence and some filtered daylight. the UV component of TAPPI brightness is the lowest of any standard. TAPPI brightness provides the lowest number of any of the three scales and rarely exceed 100%

I like the water drop picture. I think that the blue was a good idea because mixed with the milk and you just caught it at the right moment to where the drop was still connected but you can still see everything.
My least favorite picture was the one with the bicycle wheel mainly because the colors were not as vibrant as i would've liked to see.
I like the bubble picture and I like how you cropped it.
I think you can improve on using all of the things you have to make a cool picture, like maybe using more props for the "mini" people photo.

On this website I looked at multiple different pictures taken by different people all around the world. It would say the name of the person who took it and the location of the photo. What all these photos had in common is that they were all taken with a iPhone6.


I learned that you can take really good photos with just a phone.


This site relates to photography because it just shows how good of a photo can come from just a phone.

Slow Sync Flash Photography

1) Shoot with a flash or with a low shutter speed.
2)The problem with this is that it can also leave your subject lit up too brightly. if you’re shooting a moving subject it means you’ll get motion blur which could ruin your shot.
3) Consider slow sync
4)Front Curtain Sync is the normal flash mode, with the flash being triggered near the start of the shutter duration The flash finishes quick, and freezes the motion, and then the slow shutter remains open longer, and can blur due to the continuous ambient light, So the ambient blur appears later (out in front of where the flash fired), appearing to lead the motion. Rear Curtain Sync waits to fire the flash until almost the end of the shutter duration, so that the ambient shutter blur occurs first.

Flash Photography

1) Every flash photograph is 2 exposures in 1.
2) Fill flash can be used when subject is backlit or side lit to eliminate silhouettes or shadows.
3) Flash exposure is not affected by shutter speed.
4) Flash illumination is dramatically affected by distance.
5) Your camera measures ambient light and flash illumination separately.
6) With automatic flash metering the flash illumination is measured after the shutter button is pressed and the flash output is adjusted accordingly.
7) Every SLR camera with a mechanical shutter box has a maximum flash sync shutter speed.
8) Harsh lighting, washed out subjects, and red eye can be eliminated by using diffusers and light bouncing.
9) It is possible to change order of when the flash fires using "rear curtain sync"
10) Removing the flash from the top of the camera helps eliminate red eye and unflattering shadows.

6 Stations

Black Acrylic Glass-
This image was created by taking a few pieces of ice and laying them on a piece of acrylic glass. Some of the materials needed to create this image would be a camera with a nice lens, preferably a 50 mm, black acrylic glass, and a few pieces of ice.

Water Drop-
This photo was created by dropping a colored liquid on a black piece of something and having a black backdrop. For this image you would need paint, a camera and a black back drop. You might also need a pretty nice lens, preferably a macro.

Light Wheel Painting-
This Photo was created by a man spinning a wheel in his hangs that have lights attached to the wheel. For this photo you would need a wheel and lights attached to it, a camera and set the camera with a long shutter speed.

1) The picture i like the best is the dog smirking. I like this one the most because the dog is smiling and dogs don't do that. 
2) Out of all of the photos she posted there were none that I didn't like. 
3) I love all of the photos because the colors in the photos pop. I also love the photos because none of them are blurry and the picture is near perfect. 
4) One area that she can improve in is her depth of field concept because when she shot the architecture photo the area of focus was too deep. 
5) I think she did the best portraying things because the dog doesn't look like a dog but more of a thing.
6) I think she did  a great job portraying all of the topics, Therefor there were no bad photos. 
7)
